* Chandler is trying to console the newly-divorced Ross by pointing out that neither he nor Joey have ever had a long-term relationship. Unfortunately, halfway through his attempt at consolation, his train of thought jumps to the adjacent track and he instead uses Ross' divorce as a justification for him and Joey ''not'' having long-term relationships.-->'''Chandler:''' Look, Ross, you gotta understand, between us ''[indicates himself and Joey]'' we haven't had a relationship that has lasted longer than a Mento. ''You'', however, have had the love of a woman for four years. Four years of closeness and sharing, at the end of which she ''ripped'' your heart out, and ''that'' is why we don't do it!... I don't think that was my point!

Big deal! Like Joey's constant knuckle-cracking isn't annoying? ''[Joey looks concerned]'' And Ross with his overpronouncing every single word, and Monica with that ''snort'' when she laughs, I mean, what the hell is that? ''[Monica looks shocked]'' I accept all those flaws, why can't you accept me for this!?\\''[long pause; Phoebe starts chewing on her hair]''\\'''Joey:''' Does the knuckle-cracking bother everybody?\\'''Rachel:''' Well...

[[folder: 105: TOW the East German Laundry Detergent ]]

* David Schwimmer had a knack for physical comedy, and this episode includes a classic example. After helping Rachel do her own laundry for the first time (if not without incident), Ross is rewarded with a kiss, and is so ecstatic he doesn't pay attention to where he is moving and bangs his head on an open dryer door.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: 106: TOW the Butt ]]

* Joey's "Freud!" song, so good it shows up in nearly every ClipShow for the rest of the series' run. Phoebe, Monica, Chandler, and Ross know that Rachel's excitement at seeing Joey on stage will evaporate as soon as the play begins, and they're quite right...-->'''Joey:''' ''[singing, as Freud]'' All you want is a dinkle\\What you envy's a schwang\\A thing with which you can tinkle\\To play with, or simply let hang* Joey uses Monica's bathroom to put cream on his butt. Chandler then shows up. -->'''Chandler''': Where's Joey? His mom's on the phone.\\'''Monica''': In the bathroom. I wouldn't go in there.\\'''Chandler''': Oh, come on. We're roommates. ''(goes in the bathroom, only to scream loudly off screen and race back out again with his hands covering his face)'' MY EYES! '''MY EYES!'''

"Gum would be ''perfection''". Could have said "gum would be nice", could have said "I'll have a stick", but no no no no no. To me, gum is "perfection"! ''I loathe myself.'' ''(HeadDesk)''* Things don't improve when Chandler tries to blow a bubble with the gum, thinking it would come across as impish, only to spit the gum against the wall instead.-->'''Chandler:''' ''[thinking]'' Nice going, imp. Okay, i-i-it's okay. All I need to do is reach over, and put it back... in my mouth. ''[he does so... or so he thinks]'' Good save! We're back on track, and I'm... ''[[IAteWhat chewing someone else's gum]]. [grimaces]'' This it not my gum, oh my God, oh my God... ''[starts choking on the gum]'' And now you're choking.\\'''Jill:''' Are you all right?

That was... that was...\\'''Jill:''' Perfection? ''[smiles; Chandler smiles back]''* In TheStinger, the power has come back on, and Chandler and Jill have thanked each other and said their goodbyes, which in Jill's case involves kissing Chandler on the cheek. After she leaves, Chandler turns to the security camera:-->'''Chandler:''' Hi. I'm account number 7143457, and, uh... I don't know if you got any of that, but I would really... like a copy of the tape.

* Joey finally hits it big... [[https://youtu.be/wDUcKcM3Wp0 as a model for VD]]! To quote the poster, "What Mario isn't telling you... VD: you never know who might have it."** The other five find the poster hilarious; Joey, not so much, as not only is it scuppering his every attempt to hit on girls, but it has also ruined his Thanksgiving plans:--->'''Joey:''' ''[entering Monica and Rachel's apartment in a funk]'' Set another place for Thanksgiving. My entire family thinks I have VD.\\'''Chandler:''' Tonight, on a [[VerySpecialEpisode very special]] ''Series/{{Blossom}}''!** In TheStinger, he sees one of the posters in the subway and tears off the "VD: you never know who might have it" caption, only to reveal another one saying "Bladder control problem" underneath. So he tears off that one, and reveals a caption saying "Stop wife beating". He tries again, and this time the caption reads "Hemorrhoids?"... and finally, at the fourth attempt, he reveals the caption "Winner of 3 Tony awards". Good enough, he thinks, and leaves.

* Rachel's attempt at an erotic novel is completely appropriate due to her horrible typing skills. Women with heaving beasts and niffles (usually found on the heaving beasts, according to Joey), men with huge throbbing pens (Ross says you don't want to be around when they start writing with them), and more!

[[folder: 116: TOW Two Parts, Part I ]]

* This is the first episode to feature Phoebe's twin sister Ursula, crossing over from ''Series/MadAboutYou''; Chandler and Joey have dinner at Riff's and initially mistake Ursula (whose waitressing is down to its usual standards) for Phoebe. The next day, they see Phoebe at Central Perk, and Chandler remembers why he's usually hesitant to engage Joey in conversation about anything:-->''[Chandler and Joey are peering through the window at Central Perk]''\\'''Chandler:''' All right, now look at her and tell me she doesn't look exactly like her sister.\\'''Joey:''' I'm sayin' I see a difference.\\'''Chandler:''' They're twins!\\'''Joey:''' I don't care! Phoebe's Phoebe. Ursula's... hot!\\'''Chandler:''' ''[as he and Joey go indoors]'' You know that thing, when you and I talk to each other about things?\\'''Joey:''' Yeah?\\'''Chandler:''' Let's not do that anymore.* During a LamazeClass, Carol gets really freaked out about the idea of giving birth. Ross tries to comfort her, leading to this outburst:-->'''Carol:''' Oh, what do you know?! No-one's going up to you and saying, "Hi, is that your nostril? Mind if we push this '''pot roast through it?!'''"** And then the next class, Carol doesn't show up. Ross argues that since Susan actually is a woman, she should play the "pregnant woman" role while he plays the "supportive partner" role. Susan successfully argues that since she's the one in a relationship with Carol, she should be the "supportive partner" while Ross is the "pregnant woman", so she'll get to play the same role she actually will be playing when her partner gives birth. Ross seems to be taking it pretty well until the teacher says "Now, imagine your vagina opening up like a flower."

* Joey, Chandler and Ross dancing to [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLosnG_M3rk "The Lion Sleeps Tonight"]]. The funniest part is how they subtly and gently bounce along, them the "aweemaweh" start, and ''then'' they start actually dancing.

[[folder: 120: TOW the Evil Orthodontist ]]

* Chandler is staring intently at the telephone, waiting for a girl to call. Monica sneaks up behind him and [[SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud makes a telephone buzzing/ringing sound]]. Chandler scrambles for the phone to answer it, realizes he's been tricked, and tells her "Hell is filled with people like you." Monica tosses her head defiantly while smirking.

* Chandler and Joey are sporting new haircuts courtesy of "Vidal Buffay". Monica is impressed with the results and approaches Phoebe to ask about having her hair cut, but her method of bringing up the subject doesn't get the desired result at first:-->'''Monica:''' Pheebs! Y'know what I'm thinkin'?\\'''Phoebe:''' Oh, okay! ''[thinks]'' How... it's been so long since you've had sex, you're wondering if they've changed it?\\'''Monica:''' ... no. Although now that's what I'm thinking...* Chandler asks if anyone knows a good tailor (when Joey asks if he needs some clothes altered, Chandler snarks that he just wants someone to draw on him with chalk), and we get a classic moment of Joey cluelessness:-->'''Joey:''' Why don't you go see Frankie? My family's been goin' to him forever. He did my first suit when I was 15. No, wait - 16. No - excuse me - 15. ''[still not sure]'' All right, when was 1990?\\'''Chandler:''' ''[exchanges a look of disbelief with Monica and Phoebe, then leans in to Joey]'' Okay... you have to ''stop'' the Q-tip when there's resistance!* After Ross comes home from China in a relationship with Julie, Rachel follows his lead of going out with an old flame and spends the night with Paolo. Then Ross and Julie arrive the next morning:-->'''Ross''': What are you doing here?\\'''Paolo''': I do Racquela.* Phoebe agrees - somewhat reluctantly - to cut Monica's hair. HilarityEnsues when she doesn't quite understand who Monica wanted her hair like: -->'''Phoebe:''' Relax, I know what I am doing. This is how he wears it.\\'''Monica:''' ...How ''who'' wears it?\\'''Phoebe:''' Creator/DemiMoore.\\'''Monica:''' Demi Moore is not a ''he''. \\'''Phoebe:''' Well, he was a he in ''Film/{{Arthur}}'' and in ''Film/{{Ten}}''. \\'''Monica:''' ''(stands up)'' That's [[Creator/DudleyMoore DUDLEY Moore]]!

THAT'S WHY I WANTED TO LOOK LIKE HER!!\\'''Phoebe:''' Oh, I'm...[[PlayingTheVictimCard y'know, my mom's...dead...]]\\'''Monica:''' '''OH MY ''GOD!'''''* They later play it as if she has some horrible disease, with Monica in her room and Phoebe at the door, explaining it'll take some time for her to recover. When Joey asks if he can see her, Phoebe tells him he has such pretty hair that it'll probably set Monica off again. [[StealthInsult She then tells Ross he can come in.]] [[DoubleTake Ross realizes a second later what she is implying.]]* Joey's tailor turns out to [[DirtyOldMan "take advantage" of every customer he has]], much to Chandler's horror. [[https://youtu.be/gzomehgKneI Joey is completely oblivious to this]]:-->'''Joey:''' ''(in a "duh!" tone)'' ''That's how they do pants!'' First they go up one side, they move it over, then they go up the other side, they move it back, and then they do the rear.\\''(Chandler and Ross stare at Joey)''\\'''Joey:''' What? Ross, will you tell him. Isn't that how a tailor measures pants?\\'''Ross:''' ''(to Chandler)'' Yes, yes it is. ''(to Joey)'' In '''prison!'''* Joey's OhCrap when he realises the truth moments later. And he eventually decides to call his dad:-->'''Joey:''' ''(on the phone)'' No, I swear to God, Dad! That's not how they measure pants!* [[GreenEyedMonster Rachel]] later uses Phoebe's celebrity confusion when the latter offers to cut Ross's new girlfriend's hair:-->'''Phoebe:''' Rachel, just so I don't screw it up again; Creator/AndieMacDowell is the actress in ''Film/FourWeddingsAndAFuneral'', right?\\'''Rachel:''' Uh, no. That's Creator/RoddyMcDowall. Andie [=MacDowell=] is the actor in ''[[Film/PlanetOfTheApes1968 Planet of the Apes]]''.

* Rachel getting attacked by a pigeon. Forgot how high Jennifer Aniston can shriek. Made even funnier by her attempts to catch the pigeon.-->'''Rachel:''' That's right, you just read the Family Circus ''[advances on pigeon with a cooking pot]'' Enjoy the gentle comedy...* And when Rachel first meets Phoebe's husband, she opens the pot in surprise, and lets the pigeon go. Phoebe's husband is really impressed, and asks how she did it. Which leads to the gang [[https://youtu.be/zRs-YRtCXoU revealing secrets about each other]].

* Ross finds a message for Chandler on his answering machine:-->'''Ross:''' Hey, Chandler, why is this woman leaving a message for you on my machine?\\'''Chandler:''' Oh, see, I had to tell her that my number was your number, because I couldn't tell her that my number was my number, because she thinks that my number is Bob's number.\\'''Ross:''' Hey, tell me again, what do I do when [[Series/ThreesCompany Mr. Roper]] calls? * In the tag scene, the woman calls the apartment again, with Joey laying on the couch instead of Chandler. Originally, Joey was going to answer it, but he tripped on his way to the phone, which was deemed more hilarious, [[ThrowItIn so it was left in.]]

[[/folder]]

[[folder: 206: TOW the Baby on the Bus ]]

* Phoebe's songs are always good for laughs, and since this episode features a subplot in which a professional guitarist is given Phoebe's gig at Central Perk, there are several sterling examples of her... unique songwriting skills.** Near the beginning of the episode, she plays Rachel a song she wrote in the shower that morning:--->I'm in the shower and I'm writing a song\\Stop me if you've heard it\\My skin is soapy and my hair is wet\\And "[[ProductPlacement Tegrin]]" spelled backwards is "nirget"** Just before Phoebe meets her replacement, we get another snippet:--->'''Phoebe:''' ''[singing]'' ... with the double double double-jointed boy.* In a brief crossover with ''Series/CarolineInTheCity'', Joey and Chandler meet Caroline when trying to find someone to show Ross's baby Ben to and she mistakes them for a gay couple who adopted a baby.[[note]] The evening this episode premiered (2 November 1995) was promoted as a crossover evening, with David Schwimmer making an extended guest appearance as Ross in ''The Single Guy'' on the episode "Neighbors", and Matthew Perry making a return crossover appearance as Chandler in the ''Caroline in the City'' episode "Caroline and the Folks".[[/note]]-->'''Caroline''': You know, my brother and his boyfriend have been trying to adopt for three years. What agency did you two go through?* Joey and Chandler accidentally leaving Ben on the bus and running after the bus.* When they get to transit authorities, the Transit Authority guy assumes that one of them is the father. Their response?-->'''Chandler''': That's me.\\'''Joey''': I'm him.\\'''Chandler''': Actually, uh, [''puts his arm around Joey''] we're both the father.* When Joey and Chandler go into the room with the babies, they find two of them. However, one is wearing ducks and the other one is wearing clowns. Joey and Chandler flip a coin for the baby. The coin lands on heads, and then we get this:-->'''Chandler''': We have to assign heads to something.\\'''Joey''': Right. Ok, ok, uh, ducks is heads, because ducks have heads.\\''({{Beat}})''\\'''Chandler''': What kind of scary-ass clowns came to ''your'' birthday?* At the end when Joey and Chandler come home with the baby:-->'''Ross''': I'm here. How's my little boy? Want daddy to change your diaper? So, did you have fun with Uncle Joey and Uncle Chandler today?\\'''Joey''': Oh, yeah, he rode the bus today.\\'''Ross''': Ohhh. Big boy, riding the bus--Hey, I have a question. How come it says Property of Human Services on his butt?\\'''Chandler''': You, you are gonna love this.\\'''Ross''': Will you hold Ben for a sec? Come here. Come here.\\'''Chandler''': Stay back, I've got kiwi. Run, Joey, run!

[[folder: 208: TOW the List ]]

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGb7sC4mpk0 Chandler is so proud of his new laptop's capabilities]], when today it's laughably inadequate compared to a cellphone.-->'''Chandler:''' [[TechnologyMarchesOn All right, check out this bad boy, 12 megabytes of RAM, 500 megabyte hard drive, built-in spreadsheet capabilities, and a modem that transmits at over 28,000 bps.]][[note]] Well, it was state of the art... in 1995.[[/note]]\\'''Phoebe:''' Wow! What are you gonna use it for?\\'''Chandler:''' Games and stuff.* This episode includes another classic Phoebe song entitled "The Two of Them Kissed Last Night", a ''very'' thinly veiled fictionalisation of Ross' conundrum of having to choose between Rachel and Julie.-->There was a girl, we'll call her Betty, and a guy, let's call him Neil\\[[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial Now I can't stress this point too strongly, this story isn't real]]\\Now our Neil must decide, who will be the girl that he casts aside\\Will Betty be the one who he loves truly, or will it be the one who we'll call Ju--[[LastSecondWordSwap Loolie]]\\He must decide, he must decide, even though I made him up, he must decide* Monica's subplot in this episode sees her being hired to help market Mockolate, a synthetic chocolate substitute (that, judging from the reaction of both Monica and everyone who eats the food she creates with it, tastes absolutely awful - and, her employer implies, may carry other health risks), and includes a moment so funny it ended up having to be re-written and only appears in the gag reel. Monica makes a batch of Mockolate chip cookies for Rachel and Phoebe; Phoebe eats one and says, "This must be what evil tastes like." However, we know from the gag reel that the original line was "Jesus, Monica, these are the cookies they serve in ''hell!''" The line had to be changed because Lisa Kudrow simply '''could not say the line without laughing.'''* Though it ends on a TearJerker with Rachel's reaction to what Ross thinks are her cons, the boys' panicked trying to keep the list away from her. Particularly Chandler's "reading" the "short story".-->'''Chandler''': It was summer, and it was hot. Rachel was there. A ''lonely'' gray couch! "Oh, look," cried Ned. And then the kingdom was his forever, the end!

[[/folder]]

[[folder: 210: TOW Russ ]]

* Rachel starts dating Ross' doppelganger, a periodontist named Russ (played by David Schwimmer in a wig and false chin). Phoebe, Monica, Chandler, and Joey all notice the resemblance immediately, but Ross and Russ do not (Ross even indulges in a bit of HypocriticalHumor regarding Russ' vocal mannerisms), and neither does Rachel until Phoebe draws her attention to it, at which point she cannot unsee it and drops Russ like a sack of potatoes. In TheStinger, a dejected Russ runs into Chandler and Phoebe at Central Perk, and then Ross' ex-girlfriend Julie shows up, and it's LoveAtFirstSight, complete with romantic music swelling on the soundtrack... and looks of utter disbelief on Chandler and Phoebe's faces.* This episode sees the beginning of the story arc in which Joey is cast in ''Series/DaysOfOurLives''. He stops by the office of his agent, Estelle, and tells her he got a callback (though he goes on to tell her that the casting director was flirting with him and implied that a session on the CastingCouch would guarantee him the part). Her initial reaction to the news of his callback is hilarious:-->'''Estelle:''' Have you ever seen me ecstatic?\\'''Joey:''' No.\\'''Estelle:''' Well, here it is. ''[cracks a really small smile that looks more like she just smelled something unpleasant]''* Two subplots are wrapped up in the last scene before the credits, as Monica discovers that Fun Bobby only seems fun because of his alcoholism, and going on the wagon makes him incredibly dull - prompting Monica to start drinking just to endure her time with him and making him concerned that she is becoming alcoholic herself, leading him to end their relationship. Cue Ross and Chandler paying out {{Side Bet}}s to Phoebe and Rachel, respectively. Then Joey arrives and announces that he couldn't go on the CastingCouch with the ''Series/DaysOfOurLives'' casting director after all - only to be offered a larger role as a result. Cue Phoebe and Rachel paying their money back to Ross and Chandler.

Do you want to see me ''cry''?-->'''Phoebe''': Sir, no, sir!* Monica choosing to tell Rachel her lame cooking idea for the wedding at the most inappropriate moment possible (her mother has just told her she wants to divorce her father):-->'''Monica:''' Alright, tell me if this is too cute: Lesbian wedding: [[IncrediblyLamePun chicken breast?]]-->'''Rachel:''' [''horrified at her mother's news''] Oh, God...

[[folder: 212-13: The One After the Super Bowl ]]

* Joey asks Chandler what they're going to do for dinner. Chandler responds that they could stay in and cook for themselves. After a beat both break out in laughter at the utter absurdity of that idea.* Phoebe's four different songs in the first half. These were songs she wrote to sing to ''children''. Doubles as heartwarming when the children she was performing for track her down because they like that her songs speak the truth, rather than the mushy material they are used to.-->Now Grandma's a person who everyone likes,\\She bought you a train and a bright shiny bike.\\Well, lately she hasn't been coming to dinner,\\And the last time you saw her she looked so much thinner...\\Now your mom and your dad said she moved to Peru,\\But the truth is she died, and someday you will too.

-->There'll be times when you get older\\When you'll want to sleep with people\\Just to make them like you...\\But don't!\\Because that's another thing that you don't wanna do,\\That's another thing that you don't wanna do.

-->Now the cow in the meadow goes "Moo."\\Now the cow in the meadow goes "Moo."\\Then the farmer hits him on the head and grinds him up\\And that's how we get hamburgers!\\''[spoken]'' Nowwww, chickens!

-->Sometimes men love women,\\And sometimes men love men,\\And then there are bisexuals,\\But some just say they're kidding themselves...* Monica and Rachel discover that they have both been dating Creator/JeanClaudeVanDamme and get into a fight with each other. Phoebe breaks them apart by dragging them away by their ears. After Rachel agrees to break things off with him, we get the following reaction from Phoebe:-->'''Phoebe:''' If we were in prison, you guys would be, like, my bitches.* In [[https://youtu.be/TK4-5RzTws4 order to convince]] a LoonyFan that [[ItMakesSenseInContext Joey is Dr Drake Remoray's evil twin]], Rachel and Monica use some soap opera cliches and throw their drinks at him. Not to be outdone, Chandler yells about the toilet seat and throws his as well.-->'''Rachel''': Yes, yes it is true. And I know this because, because he pretended to be Drake to, to sleep with me!\\[''Throws water in Joey's face'']\\'''Monica''': And then he told me he would run away with me, and he DIDN'T!\\[''Throws water in Joey's face'']\\'''Chandler''': [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking And you left the toilet seat up]], you ''bastard!''\\[''Throws water in Joey's face'']

[[folder: 214: TOW the Prom Video ]]

* In the episode's Chandler/Joey subplot, Joey, now financially stable after being cast on ''Series/DaysOfOurLives'', buys Chandler a gaudy gold bracelet to thank him for financially supporting him while he was a starving actor. Unfortunately, Joey walks into Central Perk while Chandler is telling Phoebe how ridiculous he finds the bracelet, and Chandler spends the rest of the episode trying to atone.** Chandler's attempts to apologize for making fun of the bracelet go downhill when he discovers that he lost it. He then lifts up the seat cushions, and Joey sees him.--->'''Chandler''': I am here ''on my knees'', holding up these couch cushions as a symbol of my sorrow and regret, much like they did in Biblical times. Though you may haveth anger now...** Chandler finally buys a replacement bracelet, only for Rachel to find the one he lost. When Joey sees the two bracelets, Chandler covers by saying he got him one as an apology.--->'''Joey''': ''[excited]'' We're bracelet buddies!\\'''Chandler''': ''[horrified]'' That's what they'll call us!* The gang is watching an old video of "[=FatMonica=]"; present-day Monica protests, "Come on, the camera adds ten pounds!"... prompting Chandler to [[DeadpanSnarker snark]], "So how many cameras are actually ''on'' you?"* Another classic David Schwimmer physical comedy moment: in the video, when everyone thinks Rachel's prom date is standing her up, Jack and Judy Geller suggest Ross go as her date. He is in such a mad dash to go upstairs to change into his father's tuxedo that he trips on the stairs.

[[folder: 215: TOW Ross and Rachel... You Know ]]

* This episode sees the debut of Chandler and Joey's leather recliners, which they refuse to leave for most of the rest of the episode. Phoebe tries to get them to quit watching the TV for the first time in hours, only to flip out and join them when they turn on ''Film/{{Xanadu}}'' of all things.* Joey and Chandler watching (and acting like) [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJJN6P_Oxjg Beavis and Butt-Head]].

I thought I was gonna see a film about yankee pride, and then, boom! The guy gets Lou Gehrig's disease.\\'''Richard:''' Uh, the guy ''was'' Lou Gehrig. Didn't you kinda see it coming?* Richard accepts Chandler and Joey's offer of a spare New York Knicks ticket. Monica is concerned, but Richard shrugs it off:-->'''Richard:''' Don't worry, I like hanging out with those guys. It's fun for me. They're different than my other friends. They don't start sentences with, "You know who just died shoveling snow?"* Monica wonders why it bothers her that Richard has gone to the basketball game with Chandler and Joey instead of spending the evening with her. Phoebe takes the long view:-->'''Phoebe:''' Does it matter? You're ultimately just gonna die or get divorced or have to blow your pet's head off.* Ross gets a bit carried away planning his future with Rachel:-->'''Rachel:''' I don't know, you tell me! One minute I'm holding Ben like a football. The next thing I know, I've got two kids and I'm living in Scarsdale complaining about the taxes!\\'''Ross:''' Well I'm sorry. I think about stuff. You know, I mean, you're at work, you're assembling bones, your mind wanders.* Richard wipes the table with Joey and Chandler at foosball:-->'''Richard:''' But... he gets it back, passes to the middle, lines it up, and... bam!

I didn't know they had foosball in the 1800's.\\'''Richard:''' Nice moustache, by the way. When puberty hits that thing's really gonna kick in.

* Chandler is pursuing online romance, and inevitably Phoebe observes that for all he knows, his "girlfriend" could "be like 90 years old, or have two heads, or... it could be a guy."[[note]] Ultimately, the identity of his online girlfriend is worse than any of those: it's Janice.[[/note]] Joey has a foolproof test for the last of those:-->'''Joey:''' Just ask her how long she's gonna live. Women live longer than men.\\'''Chandler:''' ''[looks at Joey in disbelief]'' How do you not fall down more?* Joey is auditioning for a film in which he has to kiss another man, so he tries putting the moves on every other male character in the episode. Finally, in TheStinger, Ross plants a big kiss on Joey... who tells him that his audition was that morning and he didn't get the part, but that Rachel is a very lucky girl...[[/folder]]

[[folder: 305: TOW Frank Jr. ]]

* Joey innocently points out to Monica that her bathroom floor is "old and dingy", leading to the following exchange. The best part is Monica's completely serious reaction to the different colour of the floor under the hamper:-->'''Monica:''' ''[seeing Joey's tight jeans]'' Hey! Where ya' headed in those pants, 1982?\\'''Joey:''' ''[helping himself to a beer from the fridge]'' Oh, Monica, listen, I saw down at the hardware store they got those designer tiles on sale, if you ever wanna redo your bathroom floor.\\'''Monica:''' What's wrong with my bathroom floor?\\'''Joey:''' Nothing, it's just... old and dingy, that's all.\\'''Monica:''' ''[smiles]'' I highly doubt that.\\'''Joey:''' ''[chuckles]'' Oh, yeah? ''[heads for the bathroom]'' If you, uh... move your hamper, you can see the colour the tile used to be. ''[pulls the laundry hamper away from the wall; Monica gasps in horror]'' Yeah.\\'''Monica:''' I can't live like this! What are we gonna do? What are we gonna do?\\'''Joey:''' Relax, relax!

Look at that! Every inch of this is glued down! It'd take forever to pry this up! ''[replaces the gouge in his tool belt and takes his beer back]'' You should, uh, you should just leave it.

* As the flashback begins, we learn that Ugly Naked Guy didn't always match the first part of his moniker:-->'''Phoebe:''' Cute Naked Guy is really starting to put on weight.* Monica seeing Joey naked:-->'''Monica:''' Here's your glass of penis!* Ross and Phoebe suddenly making out on a pool table. Ross bangs his head on a lamp and gets a foot stuck in one of the table's holes while on top of Phoebe.-->'''Ross:''' I can't get it out.\\'''Phoebe:''' That's not what a girl wants to hear.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: 308: TOW the Giant Poking Device ]]

* In one subplot, Joey sees Janice, who is currently in a relationship with Chandler, kissing her ex-husband, Gary AKA the Mattress King.** The first person Joey tells is Monica, and the two of them enter Central Perk to find Ross, Rachel, and Phoebe around the table:--->'''Joey:''' Hey, i-is Chandler here?\\'''Ross:''' ''[pats himself down as though looking for Chandler in his pockets]'' ... no, no he's not!** Joey decides not to tell Chandler out of fear at how he will react - until he and Chandler pass a jeweller's and Chandler decides to go in to buy Janice a birthday present. Joey's attempts to talk him out of it don't go well:--->'''Chandler:''' ''[as he and Joey pass the jeweller's window]'' Hey, hold on a sec, hold on a sec. ''[points at a necklace]'' Do you think these pearls are nice?\\'''Joey:''' I'd really prefer a mountain bike.\\'''Chandler:''' ''[smiles thinly]'' Janice's birthday is coming up, I wanna get her something special. ''[Joey visibly wrestles with whether to tell Chandler the truth]'' Come in here with me.\\'''Joey:''' Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait, whoa. You, uh... you wanna get her something special. Get her flowers, get her candy - get her gum. Girls love gum!\\'''Chandler:''' That's a good idea. "Dear Janice: Have a Hubba Bubba birthday!" ''[Joey gestures in agreement]'' I would like to get her something ''serious''.\\'''Joey:''' Ohhh, you want something ''serious''. You know what you should do? You should get her one of those, um... barium enemas! Those are ''dead'' serious!\\'''Chandler:''' ''[absorbs this]'' All right. Look, I'm gonna go in there, and you don't buy me anything ''ever!''* In another subplot, Monica and Rachel are left in charge of looking after Ross' son, Ben.** The girls try to get Ben to laugh by swinging him up and down, only to bump his head against a beam and causes a bumped bruise to appear:--->'''Rachel''': We're not OK. Oh, god. There's a lump on his head.\\'''Monica''': Well push it in! PUSH IT IN!\\'''Rachel''': I cannot push it in!** They decide to cover up his bump with a hat. Rachel says "I'll get Rainy Day Bear" and Monica snarks "Because ''he'll'' know what to do?" - Rachel wants the hat on the bear's head. When Monica tries to pull the hat off, she ends up ripping the bear's entire head off. Rachel then wails "it's like a blood bath in here today!"** That episode becomes even funnier in hindsight, since Ben starts saying "Monica Bang," basically getting ready to squeal on Monica. Looking back, it almost sounds like he's saying "Monica '''Bing'''."** Rachel tries to defuse the situation by hitting her head against the beam repeatedly while saying "Rachel Bang", but gives up after the pain gets to be too much.--->'''Rachel:''' Y'know, if it's not a headboard, it's just not worth it.** A scene later on has Ross discover through Rachel about his son's injury and decides to mess with Monica by telling her that Ben is suddenly no good at the alphabet anymore and he is also walking funny. This causes Monica to break down and shout "OH GOD I WRECKED YOUR BABY!" as she runs in the bedroom to check on Ben. Rachel's snarky, "I hope it's still funny when you're in ''hell''" is funny enough, but then Monica comes back a moment later and chases Ross around for being such a jerk. Cue LaserGuidedKarma on Ross when he smacks his head into the same beam Ben hit his head on.** And also, that beam is eventually gone in later episodes. [[FridgeBrilliance Maybe they had it removed because it was such a hazard?]]* And in the subplot which gives the episode its name, Phoebe is resisting going to the dentist with a toothache because the last few times she went to the dentist, someone she knew died while she was in the chair. She finally caves and, after returning from the dentist, calls everyone she knows (Chandler doesn't pick up at first as he is confronting Janice over two-timing him, causing a panicked Phoebe to charge across from Monica and Rachel's apartment) and confirms they're all still alive... until Joey notices Ugly Naked Guy hasn't moved since that morning. Since he and Chandler have pairs of chopsticks from the many times they've ordered Chinese food, Joey leads the others in fashioning a giant poking device, which they stick through Monica and Rachel's window like thread through a needle and then through Ugly Naked Guy's window. Fortunately for Phoebe's future dental health, he's very much alive - and not happy about having his nap interrupted:-->'''Rachel:''' Hey-hey, now he's showing us ''his'' poking device.\\'''Joey:''' Hey, that's never gonna make it all the way over here, buddy!

''[Chandler and Ross nod; Ross sits down again]''\\'''Chandler:''' So isn't it a bit cold out for shorts? ''[sits down again]''\\'''Robert:''' Well... ''[sits on the arm of Phoebe's chair]'' I'm from California.\\'''Chandler:''' ... right, right, sometimes you guys just burst into flame.\\''[Robert puts one foot up on the table and begins talking to Phoebe, affording Chandler an unwanted glimpse up his shorts. Chandler gets a horrified look on his face; eventually, he thinks through enough of the shock to stand up]''\\'''Chandler:''' I'm up!... ''[clears throat]'' I'm up! I've... gotten up... now! Anybody, uh, want anything?\\'''Phoebe:''' I'll have coffee!\\'''Robert:''' Yeah, me too!\\'''Ross:''' Yeah, make that three.\\'''Chandler:''' Okay! Ross, why don't you come with me?\\'''Ross:''' ''[confused]'' Okay... ''[joins Chandler at the counter]'' Wha... ''[laughs]'' What is the matter with you? What's going on?\\'''Chandler:''' Robert's coming out.\\'''Ross:''' What- what do you mean, he- what, is he gay?\\'''Chandler:''' No, he- ''[sighs, spends a few moments searching for the right words]'' He's coming out of his shorts.\\'''Ross:''' ... ''what!?''\\'''Chandler:''' ''The man is showing brain.''\\'''Ross:''' Are you sure? ''[Chandler grimaces and nods]'' Hold on... ''[walks back to Phoebe and Robert, clears his throat]'' I'm sorry, you guys, that was a coffee and a...\\'''Robert:''' Coffee.\\'''Ross:''' Okay.\\'''Robert:''' We could write it down for you!\\'''Ross:''' ''[leaning over the back of the sofa]'' No! No, that won't be, uh... won't be necessa... ''[sees what Chandler saw and dissolves into nervous laughter, then rejoins Chandler at the counter]''\\'''Chandler:''' Well?\\'''Ross:''' ''[still in shock]'' Yeah! Yeah. Yeah.\\'''Chandler:''' What do we do? What do we do?\\'''Ross:''' I suppose we just... try to... not look directly at it.\\'''Chandler:''' ... like an eclipse.** Later, it's Joey's turn to be unknowingly flashed by Robert...--->''[Joey and Chandler are on the sofa at Central Perk while Ross is at a nearby table; Phoebe and Robert enter with basketball gear]''\\'''Phoebe, Robert:''' Hey.\\'''Ross:''' Hey, how'd the, uh, basketball go?\\'''Phoebe:''' Oh! Okay, I learned how to shoot a layup, a foul shot, and a 23-pointer. ''[tosses the basketball to Chandler]''\\'''Chandler:''' You mean a three-pointer?\\'''Phoebe:''' Oh. I get more because I'm dainty! ''[Robert smiles and shrugs]''\\'''Robert:''' So, um, is there a phone here, I can check my messages?\\'''Phoebe:''' Yeah, in the back. Do you want a quarter? ''[begins digging in her pockets]''\\'''Robert:''' Oh, no, thanks, I always carry one in my sock. ''[puts his foot up on the arm of the sofa, right in Chandler's line of sight; Chandler tries to look away while Ross studies his book very closely, and eventually Chandler starts leaning against Joey, who has just re-started his attempt at reading ''Literature/LittleWomen'']''\\'''Joey:''' What are you doing!? ''[shoves Chandler to the other end of the sofa]'' Get back on your side of the- ''[sees what Chandler was trying to avoid looking at]'' HELLOOO! ''[exchanges a shocked look with Ross, then tries to cover his outburst by extending his hand]'' Hi. I'm Joey. We haven't met.\\'''Robert:''' ''[shakes Joey's hand]'' Hi, good to meet you. Robert. ''[goes back to the payphone as Joey, Chandler, and Ross start laughing]''\\'''Phoebe:''' ''[returning with a cup of coffee]'' What? What? You guys, what is going on? ''[sits on the sofa between Joey and Chandler]'' Do you not like Robert? ''[Joey, Chandler, and Ross just laugh harder]'' Why are you laughing!?\\'''Ross:''' Calm down, there's no reason to get testy. ''[Joey and Chandler roar with laughter]''\\'''Phoebe:''' You guys, come on!\\'''Chandler:''' We're sorry. We're sorry. It just seems that Robert isn't as ''concealed''... in the shorts area... as, uh, one may have hoped.\\'''Phoebe:''' What do you mean?\\'''Robert:''' ''[returns from the payphone and sits in the armchair]'' Hey.\\'''Phoebe:''' Hey.\\'''Joey:''' Uh, Robert! Could you, uh... uh, pass me those cookies?\\'''Robert:''' Sure! ''[puts one foot up on the table; now it's Phoebe's turn to see up his shorts. She gasps in horror]''** Phoebe's attempt to persuade Robert to wear stretch pants instead of shorts fails (he claims they make him feel too exposed), and ends with him inadvertently flashing Rachel as well after bending down to pick up his keys. She can't find a tactful way to tell him why he is starting to make her uncomfortable - fortunately, Gunther isn't as concerned about tact:--->''[Phoebe joins Chandler on the sofa at Central Perk; Ross is in the armchair]''\\'''Phoebe:''' Robert will be here any second, so... could one of you just tell him? ''[Ross groans in disgust]'' Please! Right now, every time I see him, it's like, "Is it on the loose? Is it watching me?" ''[Ross and Chandler make "Absolutely not" gestures]''\\'''Chandler:''' We can't tell him! You can't go up to a guy you barely know and talk about his... stuff.\\'''Ross:''' He's right, even if it's to say something complimentary.

Here we go ''again''... why does this keep ''happening'' to me? ''[puts one of his feet on the table]'' Is it something I'm putting out there? ''[Phoebe rolls her eyes and tries to avoid eye contact with Robert for fear of seeing "little Robert"]'' Is this my fault? Or am I just nuts?\\'''Phoebe:''' I - I - I - I - I don't know - I don't know what to say...\\'''Gunther:''' ''[bends over to clear the table and sees up Robert's shorts]'' Hey buddy? This is a family place. Put the mouse back in the house.\\''[Robert looks down and finally gets it; he puts his foot back on the floor and looks thoroughly embarrassed]''

* Joey appearing in what seemed to be a serious play, until he said "Now, I'm gonna get on this spaceship..." The best part of that was the buildup. Scenes from the play appeared in many episodes throughout the season, and it was made out to be one of those gritty off-off-Broadway productions. Then, after months, the spaceship landed.

[[folder: 323: TOW Ross' Thing ]]

* The A plot involves Ross discovering a strange growth on the small of his back. Having Rachel walk in on him when he is showing it to Chandler and Joey is embarrassing enough for him, but then he seeks medical advice, and the doctor who examines him has never seen anything like his growth, and ends up calling in a crowd of at least fifteen fellow doctors to look at it.-->'''Ross:''' ''[lying face down on the examining table with a cloth over his backside as the huge crowd of doctors gathers round him]'' You know, I have dinner plans!

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8QKYHX5g6w Robin Williams and Billy Crystal]] appear in the cold open. They weren't scripted to appear, but happened to be nearby at the time of filming, so the producers asked them to step in. The result was an [[ThrowItIn ad-libbed]] performance that was utterly hilarious, with Thomas (Robin) telling Tim (Billy) that he thinks his wife is sleeping with her gynaecologist, as "he's got access", and wondering if maybe his wound (which is still "oozing") is to blame, only for Tim to confess that he's the one sleeping with Thomas' wife ("So you're the gynaecologist?" Joey asks), leading to Thomas storming out, Tim running after him begging forgiveness, and Monica completely forgetting the news she had for the other five.[[/folder]]

[[folder: 402: TOW the Cat ]]

* After ripping his suits on the entertainment unit once too often, Chandler forces Joey to advertise it for sale. However, as Phoebe wraps up a set at Central Perk (a funny moment on its own), Ross reads the advertisement and suspects a bit of embellishment has taken place:-->'''Phoebe:''' ... DUMB, DRUNKEN BITCH! ''[angrily strums a few last chords on her guitar; the customers applaud politely, and her anger vanishes]'' Thank you! Thanks!

First, you tell us where you got the prettiest lace in all the land.* Joey and Chandler being robbed blind because Joey was foolish enough to let himself be locked in the same cabinet in which Chandler trapped him when the unit was originally built in "TOW Frank Jr.". Chandler does not take it well when Joey reveals that getting into the cabinet was his own decision:-->''[Chandler enters the apartment and throws his keys where he thinks the table is; when he hears them fall to the floor, he knows something is wrong, and looks up to see the apartment empty of everything except the entertainment unit and the ceramic dog. Even the fridge and bathroom have been emptied, and the thief has written "THANKS FOR ALL YOUR STUFF!" on the Magna Doodle]''\\'''Chandler:''' OH MY GOD!\\'''Joey:''' What?\\'''Chandler:''' ''[hurries over to the entertainment unit]'' Are you all right?\\'''Joey:''' Yeah...\\'''Chandler:''' ''[removes the hockey stick the thief put through the handles and opens the door]'' What happened??\\'''Joey:''' ''[emerging from the cupboard]'' Aw, man!

(He has at least one other disk of sound effects that includes helicopter noises.) Rachel, Monica, and Chandler are aghast; Phoebe is enraptured and gets Ross a spot performing at Central Perk.* Joey's response to Chandler admitting he was "totally over the line" in becoming the other man in Joey's relationship with Kathy.-->'''Joey:''' Over the line?

* Chandler sets Rachel up with one of his coworkers but makes the mistake of telling him that Rachel just wants a fling (which she has told him is the case). This causes Rachel to chew him out when she learns of it, because by then she's started to like the guy enough that she might want more than that.

[[folder: 412: TOW the Embryos ]]

* The entire [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oENQjvY96dM "Who Knows More About Whom?" game]] pitting Chandler and Joey against Monica and Rachel, with Ross as questionmaster.** The main game involves each team answering ten questions from four categories: Fears and Pet Peeves, Ancient History, Literature, and It's All Relative. The game gets off to an inauspicious start with the coin toss:--->'''Ross:''' ''[clears the coffee table]'' Now. The coin toss, to see who goes first. ''[he tosses the coin up in the air... and all four players simply watch it land, none of them saying a word. Ross looks put upon as he picks up the coin]'' Okay... somebody call it this time!** The first round reveals that Monica detests animals dressed as people while Chandler is terrified of the way ''Theatre/{{Riverdance}}'' and ''Film/{{Lord of the Dance|1997}}'' star Michael Flatley's legs flail about as though independent of his body. In the second round, the guys choose It's All Relative:--->'''Ross:''' ''[reading question]'' Monica and I had a grandmother who died. You both went to her funeral.[[note]] A CallBack to "TOW Nana Dies Twice" from the first season.[[/note]] Name that grandmother!\\'''Joey:''' ''[to Chandler]'' Nana?\\'''Chandler:''' She has a real name!\\'''Joey:''' ''[thinks, then points excitedly at Ross]'' Althea!\\'''Chandler:''' ''Althea!?''

What name appears on the address label?\\'''Rachel:''' ''[stands up, excited]'' Oh! Chandler gets it! It's "Chandler Bing"!\\'''Monica:''' ''[stands up, angry]'' NO!\\'''Ross:''' I'm afraid the ''TV Guide'' comes to "Chnandler Bong". ''[Joey and Chandler grin]''\\'''Monica:''' I ''knew'' that! Rachel! Use your head! ''[she and Rachel sit down again]''\\'''Chandler:''' ''[triumphantly]'' Actually, it's "''Miss'' Chnandler Bong".** Surprisingly, by the tenth question, it's Rachel rather than Monica who is a bundle of energy:--->'''Ross:''' ''[updates the scoreboard]'' All right. The score is 9 to 8 in favour of the guys. Ladies, if you miss this, the game is theirs. Pick your category.\\'''Rachel: ITSALLRELATIVE!''' ''[even Monica is shocked]''\\'''Ross:''' ''[grimaces]'' You don't have to shout ''everything''.\\'''Rachel:''' I'M SORRY!** As Monica correctly (and "unfortunately", according to Chandler) identifies the name of Chandler's dad's all-male Vegas burlesque as "Viva Las Gay-gas", the score finishes 9-9. Luckily, Ross reveals that he prepared a tiebreaker: "The ''lightning round!''" The teams decide to up the stakes: if Monica and Rachel win, Chandler and Joey have to get rid of the chicken and the duck. If Chandler and Joey win, they swap apartments with Monica and Rachel. Chandler and Joey go first:--->'''Ross:''' The lightning round begins ''[to Chandler, who is jumping up and down in anticipation]'' stop it... NOW. ''[starts timer]'' What was Monica's nickname when she was a field hockey goalie?\\'''Joey:''' Big fat goalie! ''[points to Monica]''\\'''Ross:''' Correct! ''[Monica looks sad; Rachel puts her arm around her]'' Rachel claims ''this'' is her favourite movie.\\'''Chandler:''' ''Literature/DangerousLiaisons''.\\'''Ross:''' Correct. Her ''actual'' favourite movie is...\\'''Joey:''' ''Film/WeekendAtBernies''. ''[grins and points at Rachel, who looks embarrassed]''\\'''Ross:''' Correct. In what part of her body did Monica get a pencil stuck at age 14? ''[Chandler gets an excited look and whispers in Ross' ear; Ross grimaces in disgust]'' EW, NO! ''[Monica glares at Chandler]'' Her EAR! ''[Chandler and Joey shrug]'' All right, Monica categorises her towels. How many categories are there?\\'''Joey:''' Everyday use...\\'''Chandler:''' Fancy...\\'''Joey:''' Guest...\\'''Chandler:''' [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs Fancy guest...]]\\'''Ross:''' Two seconds.\\'''Joey:''' ''[panics]'' Uh, eleven!?\\'''Ross:''' ''[stops timer]'' Eleven. Unbelievable. Eleven is correct!\\'''Joey, Chandler:''' YES!** And, after exchanging the series' signature PG-rated version of FlippingTheBird with each other, the two teams swap places, with Monica and Rachel needing four correct answers to tie, five correct answers to win. They get off to a promising start, but come unstuck on what seems like a simple question...--->'''Ross:''' The lightning round begins... ''[starts timer]'' NOW. What is Joey's favourite food?\\'''Monica:''' Sandwiches!\\'''Ross:''' Correct. Chandler was how old when he first touched a girl's breast?\\'''Rachel:''' 14?\\'''Ross:''' No, 19.\\'''Chandler:''' ''[sarcastically]'' Thanks man! ''[Joey looks at him as if to say "19!? Really?!"]''\\'''Ross:''' Joey had an imaginary childhood friend. His name was...\\'''Monica:''' [[Music/SteveMillerBand Maurice!]]\\'''Ross:''' Correct. His profession was...\\'''Rachel:''' Oh - [[Music/SteveMillerBand space cowboy!]]\\'''Ross:''' Correct! ''[Joey grins proudly and nods until he notices Chandler glaring at him]'' What is Chandler Bing's job?\\''[Monica and Rachel are both utterly silent, Joey gets excited while Chandler gets a "You seriously don't know this!?" look]''\\'''Rachel:''' Oh... oh, gosh! It has something to do with numbers...[[note]] The second time in eleven episodes Rachel has come up with this exact sentence when it emerges that no-one knows what Chandler does for a living.[[/note]]\\'''Monica:''' And processing!\\'''Rachel:''' ''[stammers]'' He carries a briefcase!\\'''Ross:''' Ten seconds, you need this or you lose the game.

* Joshua invites Rachel to the opening of a nightclub in which he has invested and puts her on the VIP list; however, this invitation comes immediately after Mr. Waltham has persuaded Rachel to take his niece Emily (introduced in this episode) to a performance of ''Die Fledermaus''. With Monica working, Phoebe suffering morning sickness (in the evening), Chandler still moping over being cheated on by Kathy, and Joey having staggeringly terrible BO after a three-day fishing trip without a shower and a fall into a tub of worms, Rachel is running out of options for someone to send to the opera in her place - until...-->'''Rachel:''' ''[sees Ross sitting in one of the recliners eating a cracker; she smiles]'' Hi!\\'''Ross:''' Hi.\\'''Rachel:''' So...?\\'''Ross:''' ''[pretends to think about it for a moment]'' No...\\'''Rachel:''' ''[groans]'' Oh, come ''on!''...\\''[there is a knock at the door]''\\'''Monica:''' ''[heads for the door]'' I think she's here.\\'''Rachel:''' No - wait, wait, wait - Ross, ''please.''\\'''Ross:''' You want me to take some girl I've never met to the ''opera'' so you can go to a club and flirt with some guy. ''[sarcastically]'' Hm. Yeah, that... that ''is'' a toughie...* But Ross eventually agrees and accompanies Emily to the opera while Rachel heads to the nightclub. Unfortunately, as she relates to Monica and Phoebe the next morning, her name was misspelled as "Rachel Greep" on the guest list, and someone else claiming to be "Rachel Greep" was allowed in instead - although she did punch a woman who tried to steal her umbrella. Phoebe's attempt to console her features a classic {{Cloudcuckoolander}} moment:-->'''Rachel:''' ''[sitting in one of Chandler and Joey's recliners]'' Ugh! I can't ''believe'' this! All I wanted was just a few hours outside of work to see Joshua, so that he could go ahead and start falling in love with me. ''[sighs]''\\'''Phoebe:''' ''[walks over and starts rubbing the top of Rachel's head]'' Aw, Pheebs...\\'''Rachel:''' ''[looks confused]'' Honey, that's ''your'' name.\\'''Phoebe:''' That's short for "Phoebe"?

Is Friday okay? ''[Rachel mutters to herself]''\\'''Monica:''' Friday is perfect, she can't wait.\\'''Danny:''' On the date, I will be able to talk to her directly, right? All right, see you Friday! ''[leaves]''\\'''Rachel:''' Okay - what the ''hell'' was that? You know what - don't answer me. ''[giddily] I have a date with Danny!'' HA!* The episode's title refers to the gang noticing Danny and his sister Krista are [[IncestSubtext a little too close]].** It starts with Rachel returning to her and Monica's apartment after seeing Danny with his arm around Krista (whom Rachel does not know is Danny's sister) as they board the subway together. Monica assures Rachel that after their date, Danny will forget all about the "stupid subway girl". The funniest part of the scene comes after Rachel heads into her bedroom - and Monica quickly ushers a half-dressed Chandler out of her own bedroom and through the front door... after which he immediately returns for just long enough to kiss her goodbye.** But after a gathering at Central Perk during which Krista feeds Danny cake off her finger and then wipes icing off his crotch after it falls off mid-bite, Monica and Chandler have joined Rachel in finding Danny and Krista's relationship bordering on incestuous (Joey, true to form, is a few steps behind the others).--->'''Chandler:''' ''[after Danny and Krista have departed]'' Oh my God!\\'''Monica:''' That was unbelievable.\\'''Rachel:''' Okay, see? I told you!\\'''Joey:''' Yeah, wow, sorry Rach.\\'''Chandler:''' I don't ''believe'' they're brother and sister!\\'''Joey:''' ''[flabbergasted; points toward the door]'' [[TheDitz They're brother and sister!?]]\\'''Chandler:''' ''[spends a few seconds visibly wondering how Joey can be so clueless, then turns to Rachel]'' So I guess you're gonna have to cancel your date.\\'''Monica''': And call their mother!

[[folder: 511: TOW All the Resolutions ]]

* TheTeaser finds the gang watching the Times Square ball drop on TV at midnight on New Year's Eve, with Chandler and Monica dejected that they can't kiss at midnight without raising eyebrows they'd rather not raise. Joey, at this point still the only one to know about their relationship, puts on an uncharacteristic display of quick thinking to dilute the effect. The funniest parts are Ross and Rachel's identical reactions to the same logic in different contexts and Phoebe's reaction to Joey subtly reeling her into the plan:-->'''Ross:''' ''[hopping up and down]'' 33! 32! 31!\\'''Joey:''' Ross, Ross, Ross! ''[Ross stops hopping]'' Ross, listen! Who are you kissin' at midnight, huh? Rachel or Phoebe?\\'''Ross:''' What?\\'''Joey:''' Well, you gotta kiss someone! Can't kiss your sister!\\'''Ross:''' Well, who's gonna kiss my sister?\\'''Joey:''' Chandler!\\'''Ross:''' ''[grimaces]'' Aw, man, ''really?''\\'''Joey:''' Dude, dude, who would you rather have kiss your sister, me or Chandler?\\'''Ross:''' That's a good point. Well, since I have that whole history with Rachel, I guess Phoebe.\\'''Joey:''' Okay, great! ''[walks over to Phoebe]'' Pheebs! Pheebs! Listen, Ross wants to kiss you at midnight!\\'''Phoebe:''' ''[rolls eyes]'' It's so ''obvious'', why doesn't he just ask? ''[smiles and heads over to Ross]''\\'''Joey:''' ''[gives Chandler and Monica a thumbs up and turns to see Rachel walking away from the fridge]'' Rach! Rach! Listen, I'm gonna kiss you at midnight.\\'''Rachel:''' What?\\'''Joey:''' Well, everyone's gotta kiss someone. Can't kiss Ross, you got the history.\\'''Rachel:''' So?\\'''Joey:''' So, who would you rather have kissing you, me or Chandler?\\'''Rachel:''' Oh, good point. ''[nods]''\\'''Partygoers:''' THREE! TWO! ONE! HAPPY NEW YEAR! ''[a cacophony of noisemakers goes off as Joey and Rachel kiss, Ross and Phoebe kiss, and Chandler and Monica kiss - a bit more passionately and for a bit longer than the other two pairs, but not enough to attract attention]''\\'''Chandler:''' Happy New Year.\\'''Monica:''' Happy New Year.\\'''Ross:''' Happy New Year, Pheebs.\\'''Phoebe:''' You too!\\'''Rachel:''' Happy New Year, Joey!\\'''Joey:''' ... so, that do anything for you? ''[Rachel looks perturbed]''* Then there are the actual resolutions. They range from the mundane - Monica's is to take more photographs of the gang - to the bizarre - Phoebe's is to pilot a commercial jet - to, well...** Joey's resolution is to learn how to play guitar, since he lists that on his resumé. Phoebe offers to teach him, but her teaching methods are unorthodox, to say the least; she won't let him actually hold a guitar for the first few lessons, and since she has no background in music theory, she refers to the chords by nicknames instead of note names. Then she discovers that Joey has been finding ways around the limits of her instruction:--->'''Phoebe:''' Tiger. ''[Joey moves his hand into what Phoebe has told him is the configuration for a guitar chord]'' Dragon. ''[Joey shifts his fingers]'' Iceberg! ''[Joey shifts his fingers again; Phoebe despairs]'' Joseph, did you even study at ''all'' last night?\\'''Joey:''' Yes, yes I did!\\'''Phoebe:''' Then do Iceberg!\\'''Joey:''' ''[to himself]'' G-sharp... ''[moves his fingers into position]''\\'''Phoebe:''' ''[incensed]'' G... sharp? Have you been studying the real names of the chords? ''[Joey doesn't answer]'' Have you!? ''[Joey looks guilty]'' Oh my ''God''...\\'''Joey:''' What?! I, I didn't touch a guitar!\\'''Phoebe:''' No, but you're questioning my method!\\'''Joey:''' No, I'm not questioning it, Phoebe, I'm sayin' it's stupid! ''[notices Monica standing between him and Phoebe, smiling]'' What? ''[the timer on Monica's camera goes off]''\\'''Monica:''' Thank you! ''[goes to her bedroom]''\\'''Phoebe:''' You know, none of my other... student... thought I was stupid!\\'''Joey:''' ''[leafing through the Yellow Pages]'' Your other ''student'' was ''YOU!''\\'''Phoebe:''' Yeah - well - y'know, maybe you just need to try a little harder!\\'''Joey:''' And maybe I need to try a real teacher! Right here, here! ''[shows Phoebe an entry in the Yellow Pages]'' Andy Cooper! He teaches guitar! And look, ooh, there's a nice picture of him with a little kid, yeah, '''''and the kid's got a guitar!'''''\\'''Phoebe:''' ''[as Joey storms back to his and Chandler's apartment]'' FINE! You go and learn from your... qualified instructor! But don't come crying to me when everyone is sick and tired of hearing you play [[Music/JimCroce "Bad Bad Leroy Brown"]]!\\'''Rachel:''' ''[entering, singing]'' "Baddest man in the whole damn town..."\\'''Phoebe:''' Oh, fine, take his side! ''[leaves, slamming the door behind her and leaving Rachel thoroughly confused]''** Rachel's resolution is to gossip less - so naturally, this is the episode in which she learns of Chandler and Monica's relationship. She is desperate to tell someone, and settles on Joey, but he is already sick of keeping secrets (unware that it's the same secret he's already keeping) and covers his ears and closes his eyes while singing tunelessly at the top of his lungs. Rachel gives up and leaves, then Chandler enters, sees Joey, and grins as he gets an idea. He picks up the chicken, which starts flapping its wings in protest, and holds it right in front of Joey's face. Joey opens his eyes... and '''screams'''.** Ross' resolution is to try something new every day. He starts by asking out fellow Central Perk customer Elizabeth Hornswoggle, and the next day he buys a pair of skintight leather pants... which contract while he is wearing them on his date at Elizabeth's, forcing him to go into the bathroom and pull them down to his knees to cool off his legs. But then he can't pull them up again, and he calls Joey in a panic; Joey suggests talcum powder and moisturising lotion, but they combine to cover his legs in a white paste. Finally, Elizabeth gets concerned over the length of time Ross has spent in the bathroom, so he emerges, his legs still covered in paste and his pants crumpled into a ball and held over his crotch:--->'''Elizabeth:''' ... oh my ''God!''\\'''Ross:''' ''[sheepishly]'' I had a problem.** Finally, Chandler's resolution is to stop making fun of his friends. Ross wagers him $50 that he can't last a week, and in TheStinger, Chandler gives in:--->'''Chandler:''' ''[entering Central Perk to find Ross, Monica, and Phoebe sat around the table]'' Oh good. Okay, look, I can't take it anymore, I can't take it anymore, so you win, okay? Here. ''[hands Ross $50]'' Pheebs? Flying a jet? Better make it a spaceship so you can get back to your ''home... planet! [Phoebe looks unamused]'' And Ross, phone call for you today, Music/TomJones, he wants his pants back! ''[Ross looks embarrassed]'' And "Hornswoggle"!? What, are you dating a character from ''Series/FraggleRock''? ''[he lets out a long, loud sigh of relief; Monica takes a picture of him]''

[[folder: 512: TOW Chandler's Work Laugh ]]

* Ross finds the other five already in Central Perk and orders a scone from Gunther, then tells the rest of the group that someone he knows is getting married, and weddings are happy, right? Oh, and "by the by", the person getting married is his now ex-wife Emily. When Gunther gives him the scone, he passes the plate to Rachel, puts the scone on the table...-->'''Ross:''' ''[pounding the scone with his fist on each word]'' STUPID - BRITISH - SNACK - FOOD!\\'''Chandler:''' Did they teach you that in your anger management class?\\''[...]''\\'''Joey:''' ''[looks at the flattened scone]'' Anybody gonna eat that?* The episode's A plot sees Monica and Chandler relishing not having to hide their status as a couple at social events thrown by Chandler's employers, until Monica discovers that Chandler has an irritating nasal fake laugh that he trots out for his boss Doug's bad jokes. Chandler tells her that she'll need a fake laugh of her own to get through the office party, so she develops one that must be heard to be believed; comparisons to barking seals are not unmerited. She trots it out again when Rachel asks if there is anything going on between her and Chandler.* Phoebe tries to mediate an argument between the duck and the chicken, which has unintended consequences for Ross' communication with Emily:-->'''Phoebe:''' ''[the duck quacks]'' Okay, then what happened? ''[the duck flaps its wings; Phoebe gasps]'' Oh! Uh-huh, uh-huh... ''[the chicken clucks]'' Uhh- you'll get your turn!\\'''Ross:''' ''[enters, dejected]'' Hey Pheebs, what's goin' on?\\'''Phoebe:''' Nothing! ''[picks up the chicken]'' This is ''not'' over. ''[sets the chicken down on the floor]''\\'''Ross:''' ''[grabs a piece of paper from the counter where the chicken was sitting]'' No, no, no!...\\'''Phoebe:''' What?\\'''Ross:''' Ugh! I was up all night writing this really nasty letter to Emily, it was perfect, and now it's all covered in, in... ''[the duck quacks]'' Actually, thanks! ''[smiles]''* As if two people with {{Annoying Laugh}}s in one episode isn't enough, Ross gets so angry about Emily getting married to someone else that he wanders off and ends up hooking up with Janice.-->'''Janice''': Okay, okay, I know what you all are thinking, but [[ContinuityNod Chandler is in Yemen]]! I'm a young woman. I have needs. I can't wait forever.* When Joey and the others question him about what he's done, Ross says he and Janice actually have a lot in common.-->'''Phoebe''': So, are you actually gonna see her again?\\'''Joey''': Phoebe, don't put ideas in his head.\\'''Ross''': I am gonna see her again.\\'''Joey''': Dammit, Phoebe!* Janice breaks up with Ross because he keeps complaining about the various problems he's endured this season. The idea that he's become so whiny that ''Janice'' can't stand to be around him is a wake-up call for him.

[[folder: 513: TOW Joey's Bag ]]

* Joey starts wearing a bag around to try and improve his credibility as an actor. Chandler and Ross make much with the fun, until eventually Chandler runs out of ways to imply Joey's a woman, and just runs with.-->'''Rachel:''' That bag is definitely going to get you the part.\\'''Chandler:''' And a date with a man!* The subplot about Chandler lying to Monica about her terrible massages.** He didn't want to hurt her feelings, but when he finally tells her the truth, she starts crying.--->'''Chandler''': Okay, but now see, you're crying.\\'''Monica''': I'm not crying about that. I'm crying about something that happened at work.\\'''Chandler''': What?\\'''Monica''': My boyfriend said he didn't like my massages!\\'''Chandler''': It's okay. You don't have to be the best at everything.\\'''Monica''': OH MY GOD, YOU DON'T KNOW ME AT ALL!** The way Chandler gets out of this is pretty good, too: [[InsaneTrollLogic telling Monica she gives the best bad massage]].

[[folder: 514: TOW Everybody Finds Out ]]

* Phoebe's amazingly shocked/{{Squick}}ed reaction to seeing Monica and Chandler having sex. She starts yelling "Chandler and Monica! CHANDLER AND MONICA!" (along with Rachel going "[[OhCrap Oh my God!]]") and then she eventually covers her eyes and yells "MY EYES!"-->'''Rachel:''' Phoebe, it's okay! IT'S OKAY!\\'''Phoebe:''' NO, THEY'RE ''DOING IT!!''\\'''Rachel:''' I know, I know! I know!\\'''Phoebe:''' YOU ''KNOW?''\\'''Rachel:''' YES I KNOW, AND JOEY KNOWS, BUT ROSS DOESN'T KNOW [[HypocriticalHumor SO YOU HAVE TO STOP SCREAMING!!]]* After Phoebe sees Monica and Chandler having sex from the view out the window, she and Rachel pretend to be super-excited about Ross possibly getting the apartment to distract him from looking out the window. He even joins in the excitement by the end. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbYpbdHCqUI It has to be seen to be believed.]]* Ross is disappointed his bribe to Ugly Naked Guy of a basket of mini muffins wasn't working:-->'''Ross''': Someone sent us a basket at work once, and people went crazy over those little muffins. It was the best day.\\'''Chandler''': Your work makes me sad.* The reaction of the group is priceless when they see Ross hanging out with Ugly Naked Guy while being naked himself!-->'''Joey:''' Hey, hey, check it out, check it out! Ugly Naked Guy's got a naked friend! ''[Chandler, Monica, Rachel, and Phoebe join him at the window]''\\'''Rachel:''' Oh yeah!... ''[all five of them slowly get utterly horrified looks]'' Oh my God, that's '''our friend!''' ''[Monica turns and buries her face in Chandler's shoulder]'' IT'S NAKED ROSS!\\'''Chandler, Phoebe, Joey:''' Oh my God!/It ''is'' Ross!...* Rachel and a reluctant Joey help Phoebe prepare for her "date" with Chandler. Joey isn't paying particularly close attention to Phoebe's requests:-->'''Rachel:''' Show time!\\'''Phoebe:''' Okay, Rachel, get me perfume!\\'''Rachel:''' Okay! ''[she runs off to do just that]''\\'''Phoebe:''' And Joey, get me a bottle of wine and glasses? ''[Joey trudges off to do just that; Rachel returns with the perfume and sprays it in the air in front of Phoebe, who walks into the mist and spins around in it. Meanwhile, Joey returns with a bottle and two mugs]'' All right! Thanks. But... um, glasses that do not have handles and that are glass. ''[looks at the bottle]'' And, um, wine that is not olive oil.* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bb3TdbQVP5A Chandler and Phoebe's]] flirting shenanigans. Phoebe 'dances' for him while promising she's 'very bendy', while Chandler just looks terrified the entire time.-->'''Phoebe:''' Hi. [beat] This is my bra.\\'''Chandler:''' I'm so happy that we're going to have ... all the sex.* In TheStinger, Ross, having succeeded in subletting Ugly Naked Guy's apartment, is meeting with his boss to prove that he's no longer angry.

* The entire opening scene where Ross confronts Chandler and Monica.** Ross' [[LargeHam rather hammy rage]] throughout the scene for the first half, complete with him sticking his head through the door (which is thankfully bolt locked) ala Film/TheShining:--->'''Ross:''' Chandler! CHANDLER! ''[tries to open the door, but can only get it open a few inches because of the chain; Monica and Chandler jump up and hastily re-adjust their clothes]'' I saw what you were doing through the window, I saw what you were doing to my sister, NOW GET OUT HERE!** Chandler's reaction to Ross clearly wanting to gut him is priceless:--->'''Chandler:''' [''quickly''] Listen, we had a good run. What was it four, five months? I mean, that's more than most people have in a lifetime. So goodbye, take care, buh-bye then.\\[''Chandler kisses Monica on the cheek, then heads for the apartment window'']\\'''Monica:''' What are you doing?\\'''Chandler:''' Oh, I'm going on the lam...** Rachel and Joey arrive after having heard Ross scream:--->'''Rachel:''' Hey, what- what's going on?\\'''Chandler:''' [''staring down an angry Ross''] Well I think -- I '''''think''''' -- Ross knows about me and Monica?\\'''Joey:''' [''whispering while making "cut" gesture at his throat''] [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Dude, he's right there?!]]\\'''Everyone Else:''' [''looks at Joey with a DeathGlare, especially Chandler'']** After [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments Chandler and Monica reveal they love each other and Ross gushily accepts it]] Joey says they should leave so Chandler and Monica can get back to what they were doing.

It's for the ''ladies.''\\'''Rachel''': Ross, honey, it's a nice couch, not a ''magic'' couch.** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_PklVas9cA Ross' attempt to enlist Rachel and Chandler to get his new couch up several flights of stairs goes badly.]]--->'''Ross:''' ''[as the couch gets wedged between the balustrades]'' Pivot! Pivot! PIVOT!!\\'''Chandler:''' SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!** In TheStinger, Ross returns the couch, which appears to have been hacked in half with a chainsaw. He dodges the shop assistant's questions about whether the couch was delivered in that condition or he was the one who chopped it up, and tells her that he will accept store credit toward a replacement. The unamused shop assistant offers him $4 in store credit; Ross has to think about it for a moment before accepting.

* Rachel happens to be in Ross's apartment when Emily leaves a message saying she's thinking of backing out of her wedding. She calls Monica over to discuss whether they should tell Ross or delete the message:-->'''Monica:''' She's obviously unstable, okay? She's thinking of running out on her wedding day. ''(Rachel turns to glare at her with pursed lips: she did that in the pilot. Monica sees this.)'' Okay, fine! But look at the position she's putting him in. And what's he gonna do? Like, Ross is gonna run over there on the wedding day and break up the marriage? Who would do that? ''(Rachel claps her hands, sighs, and turns with another glare: she did that in the previous season finale)'' Okay, fine, alright? But, y'know, that was different. Although it did involve a lot of the same people. * During the ride along, the group mistakes a car backfiring for a gunshot. Joey dives on top of Ross, but he later reveals he was actually trying to protect his sandwich.

[[folder: 522: TOW Joey's Big Break ]]

* One of the episode's B plots focuses on Phoebe being angry at Ross for reasons she won't discuss - especially not with Ross himself. When Ross sits next to her on the sofa at Central Perk and she leans further and further away from him while holding a magazine right up to her face, he tries offering an apology for his mysterious slight, and it seems to work, until...-->'''Ross:''' ''[gets up to leave]'' I'll, uh... I'll see you later, okay?\\'''Phoebe:''' Bye. ''[to herself]'' Fatass.\\'''Ross:''' ''[snaps]'' ALL RIGHT! Phoebe, now come on!

Phoebe promptly hails a taxi, shoves Rachel into it even though the cinema to which they are going, the Angelica, is within walking distance, and bangs on the roof while shouting [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aFX9L8e-N0 "Hurry, the Angelica! Go! Go!"]] to the driver, who takes off. After Phoebe confronts Ross over lying to Rachel about the annulment, Rachel's taxi reverses back to where Phoebe and Ross are standing. Phoebe asks Rachel how she enjoyed the movie; Rachel points out that she hasn't seen it, so Phoebe bangs on the taxi roof while shouting "Hurry, the Angelica! Go! Go!" again. And once again the driver takes off as Rachel yells at him to stop.* Monica's intensity is always a sight to behold such as the time when she tried to get Rachel to cry when she told her that she and Chandler are moving in together.-->'''Monica''': It's the end of an era, you might say.\\'''Rachel''': Mon, are you okay?

* Joey's time out of work has caused his health benefits to lapse, so he needs to find work to qualify for insurance again. Unfortunately, in preparing for his auditions, he gives himself a hernia lifting weights, and he can't get surgery without insurance, so he has to audition for roles with a hernia. His first audition is for a swing set commercial, appearing opposite an eight-year-old boy:-->'''Joey:''' ''[puts hand down his pants to relieve the pain]'' Hey Timmy, I've got a surprise for you.\\'''Casting director:''' Oh my ''God!''* Near the end of the episode, Joey gets the easier job of filming a deathbed scene, but they can't get the stonefaced kid acting as his son to cry.

* With Joey already on his guard about getting into a relationship with his new roommate, Janine, he becomes convinced that there is romantic tension developing between them and seeks Ross and Chandler's advice on how to repel women.-->'''Joey:''' Look, I need your help, okay? I have to do something to, to repel this woman! ''[gets an idea]'' Wait a minute, wait a minute... you guys repel women all the time!

Ross is naked!\\'''Monica''': What?!\\'''Ross''': What?!\\'''Chandler''': I couldn't say that I was naked because she's allowed to see me naked.\\'''Ross''': Why does ''anyone'' have to be naked?\\'''Monica''': Why is Ross naked?\\'''Ross''': I...

[[folder: 609: TOW Ross Got High ]]

* An extended series of awkward reveals from the episode's climax. Ross reveals that the reason Jack and Judy Geller have been cold to Chandler for a long time is because they nearly caught Ross smoking marijuana when he was home from NYU on spring break, but Ross claimed that Chandler had been smoking in his room and then jumped out of the window. As such, Monica has been unable to tell her parents about her relationship with Chandler. Meanwhile, Rachel has prepared a traditional English trifle for dessert but didn't notice that the pages in her magazine were stuck together, leading her to add a layer of minced beef, onions, and peas (crossed over from a recipe for shepherd's pie), Phoebe has gone from having erotic dreams about Jack to having erotic dreams about Creator/JacquesCousteau, and Joey is anxious to leave the Thanksgiving festivities to go to a party his roommate Janine and her fellow dancers are throwing. It all comes to a head when Monica loses patience with Ross' attempts to get out of confessing and confesses for him:-->'''Monica:''' Ross? Let's go.\\'''Ross:''' Oh, yeah, about telling Mom and Dad, I was thinking about maybe writing a letter...\\'''Monica:''' You know what? That's it. You've had your chance. ''[marches over to the back of the sofa on which her parents are sitting]''\\'''Ross:''' Wh- what-\\'''Monica:''' Mom, Dad? Ross smoked pot in college.\\'''Mr. and Mrs. Geller:''' What??\\'''Ross:''' ''[childishly]'' You are ''such'' a tattletale! ''[walks around to the front of the sofa]'' Mom, Dad? ''[sits on the coffee table]'' You remember that time you walked in my room and smelled marijuana?\\'''Mr. and Mrs. Geller:''' ''[giving Chandler a DeathGlare]'' Yes.\\'''Ross:''' Well, I told you it was Chandler who was smoking the pot but... it was me. I'm sorry.\\'''Mrs. Geller:''' It was ''you?''\\'''Monica:''' And Dad, you know that mailman you got fired? He didn't steal your Playboys, Ross did! ''[the Gellers give Ross a DisapprovingLook]''\\'''Ross:''' ''[decides to fight fire with fire]'' Yeah, well Hurricane Gloria didn't break the porch swing, Monica did! ''[Rachel, Joey, and Phoebe look shocked, while Monica looks outraged]''\\'''Monica:''' Ross hasn't worked at the museum for a ''year! [the Gellers gape at Monica in disbelief]''\\'''Ross:''' ''Monica and Chandler are ''living'' together! [Monica looks horrified, Chandler looks embarrassed, and the Gellers look stunned]''\\'''Monica:''' ''Ross married Rachel in Vegas, and got divorced! '''AGAIN!''''' ''[Ross looks mortified]''\\'''Phoebe:''' ''[deciding to join in]'' I love Jacques Cousteau! ''[the Gellers look at her in utter confusion]''\\'''Rachel:''' ''[reading the recipe she was following]'' I wasn't supposed to put beef in the trifle!\\'''Joey:''' ''[pounding the table in desperation]'' I WANNA GOOOOOOOOOO!\\'''Mrs. Geller:''' ''[rubbing her temple]'' ... That's a lot of information to get in thirty seconds. ''[stands up]'' Alright. Joey, if you wanna leave, just leave. Rachel, no you ''weren't'' supposed to put beef in the trifle. It did NOT taste good. ''[Rachel looks at Joey as if to say "Why didn't you say anything before!?"]'' Phoebe, I'm sorry, but I think Jacques Cousteau is dead. ''[Phoebe looks crestfallen]'' And Monica, why you decided to hide such an important relationship from us is beyond me.\\'''Mr. Geller:''' And we kind of figured about the porch swing.\\'''Mrs. Geller:''' Ross. Drugs? Divorced, ''again?''\\'''Mr. Geller:''' What happened, son?\\'''Ross:''' I...I, uh, I got...tricked into all those things!\\'''Mrs. Geller:''' Chandler... ''[ushers Ross out of the way as Chandler stands up]'' You've been Ross's best friend all these years, ''[Ross puts his hand on Chandler's shoulder]'' stuck by him during the drug problem, ''[Ross removes his hand, rolls his eyes, and walks off]'' and now you've taken on Monica as well! Well... I don't know what to say. You're a wonderful human being.\\'''Chandler:''' ''[amazed and delighted]'' Thank you!\\'''Mr. Geller:''' No! Thank ''you! [grabs the sides of Chandler's face, then he and Chandler hug]'' Monica, and Ross, I don't know what I'm gonna do about the two of you! ''[Monica and Ross look sheepish]''\\'''Chandler:''' ''[in a parental tone of voice]'' I'll talk to them.

* After Monica baits Chandler into telling her that Ross had an unfortunate incident on Space Mountain at Disneyland after an ill-advised binge at a "taco stand" (a guy with a hibachi operating out of the back of his car), Ross retaliates with the following story of a trip to Atlantic City:-->'''Ross''': Well, Chandler and I were at a bar...\\'''Chandler''': Did you not hear me say "DU-UDE"?!\\'''Ross''': And this girl is making eyes at Chandler, okay? So after a while he goes over to her and after a minute or two I see them kissing...

When she asks a staffer for him, the person has no idea who she's talking about.--->'''Earl:''' ''[a few desks away]'' I'M RIGHT HERE!

[[folder: 714: TOW They All Turn Thirty ]]

* The main plot involves Rachel, the youngest of the main six, turning 30.[[note]] In reality, Matthew Perry is the youngest of the group; he is six months younger than Jennifer Aniston.[[/note]] She isn't taking it well, and refuses to face her friends before Tag lays down the ground rules; one of the things they shouldn't say is "They still look pretty damn good", and Joey replies "They do!".* The extremely inappropriate card Chandler gives her doesn't help Rachel's mood:-->"Happy birthday, Grandma. It's better to be over the hill than buried under it."* Other funny moments from Rachel's birthday include Tag and Joey fighting over a scooter, as seen when Tag tries to flee on it after overhearing Rachel say she should already be with the person she is going to marry and Joey running after him shouting at him to stop hogging it.* The episode also features flashbacks to the other characters' 30th birthdays.** We start with short scenes from first Joey, then Chandler turning 30. At both of their parties, Joey is crying hysterically about the "deals" he made with God to prevent him and the gang from aging not working.** Monica's 30th birthday gets a longer flashback:*** The gang are throwing a formal, lavishly catered surprise party - with Jack and Judy Geller among the guests - only to find that Monica was taken out for drinks by the busboys at her restaurant and has returned home so blitz drunk she can barely stand. As her parents have never seen her drunk, they have to conceal her state from them as best they can. Phoebe (who loves "drunk Monica", finding her much more fun than "regular Monica") offers to divert the guests' attention by getting twice as drunk (which doesn't thrill Chandler, as "drunk Phoebe" is mean), while Chandler has to recruit Rachel to help Monica change into her party dress:---->'''Rachel:''' What's going on?\\'''Chandler:''' Monica's wasted.\\'''Ross:''' ''[bored]'' Maybe that'll liven up this party.\\'''Chandler:''' ''[to Rachel]'' Okay, will you just go help her get changed, please?\\'''Rachel:''' Okay, but taking care of a drunk, naked woman seems like a job for Joey... ''[heads to Monica's room]''\\'''Joey:''' Yep. ''[starts walking toward Monica's room, but runs into Chandler's outstretched arm]''*** When Monica staggers out of her bedroom in her formal dress (Rachel describes it as like watching Disney/{{Bambi}} learning to walk), Phoebe's idea of distracting the other guests turns out to be clinking her glass and shouting "Speech!" - after all, everyone is looking at her instead of Monica, and, as she proudly tells Chandler, she didn't even have to remove her top. The spotlight (and Jack Geller's camcorder) now on Monica, she drops the charade and gleefully tells her parents "[their] little Harmonica is hammered!" - and not for the first time - and that she has also smoked a cigarette and is hiding a box of Ding-Dongs in her underwear drawer, but it's all right because she is now a grown-up and can do as she pleases - which at that moment apparently involves falling to the floor in a drunken stupor. All while Ross films the whole thing (having taken the camcorder from his shocked father). Phoebe then decides to go to her emergency backup diversion (even though there is no longer a secret from which to divert attention):---->'''Phoebe:''' ''[gesturing to the neck strap on her dress]'' Quick, help me get this off!\\'''Joey:''' ''[eagerly]'' Yeah! ''[starts untying the strap; Ross points the camcorder at them]''** Phoebe's 30th birthday also gets a longer flashback as she tries to make up with Ursula, only to discover from Ursula's birth certificate (her own having been sold to a Swedish runaway) that her 30th birthday was a year ago; the Buffay sisters are actually 31.[[note]] In reality, Lisa Kudrow is the oldest of the main cast, having been born in 1963 compared to 1964 for Courteney Cox, 1966 for David Schwimmer, 1967 for Matt [=LeBlanc=], and 1969 for Jennifer Aniston and Matthew Perry.[[/note]] She ruefully tells Joey that this means there are things she wanted to do before turning 31 but now hasn't, such as having the perfect kiss, meeting Portuguese people, and [[BreadEggsMilkSquick going to sniper school.]]** Ross has a midlife crisis on his 30th birthday and buys a vintage MG sports car - except he can't get it out of its parking spot because it's cornered front and rear. So he gets the gang to "Lift... and slide". It works about as well as you'd expect.

[[folder: 715: TOW Joey's New Brain ]]

* Chandler and Monica's mortification when they hear Ross practicing his bagpipes across the street. -->'''Monica''': Why is your family Scottish?! -->'''Chandler''': Why is ''your'' family '''Ross'''?!* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQicfUjVVqU Phoebe singing along]] as Ross plays the bagpipes. Jennifer Aniston is trying her hardest not to laugh during that scene. Her lyric is basically "EEEEEEEEEE! EEEEEEEEEEE! EEEEEEE! EEEE! EEEEEEEEE! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" Even funnier in the outtake, where she can't stop laughing. In fact, if you look at the scene, Lisa Kudrow just can't seem to keep a straight face while 'singing'.

* The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUMHDW3xG0M scene]] where Rachel and Phoebe help Monica shop for her wedding dress during a sale.* Ross tries to derail Joey as they compete for the attention of the same girl with a ContinuityNod:-->'''Ross:''' [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQFFyKthv_s Were you on a]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iULTDFlcorI poster for gonorrhea?]]

Then Ross and Chandler show up after having mistakenly believed they lost the disposable cameras from Chandler and Monica's wedding and taken photos of themselves at another wedding, and as Ross turns to leave... well, the best part of what follows is Joey's massively DelayedReaction.-->'''Ross:''' Hey, my sweater! ''[picks up the red sweater; the studio audience cheers]'' I've been looking for this for like a month!

Later, Rachel asks her OB/GYN, "You could tell us whether itís a boy or a girl? Dayton or Sandrine? Phoebe or Phoebo?" The doctor then gets beeped and leaves the room.

[[folder: 902: TOW Emma Cries ]]

* Joey tries to apologise to Ross for accidentally making Rachel think he was proposing to her using Ross' grandmother's ring. He just makes things worse:** Joey doesn't understand the concept of "air quotes". When Ross tells him he's misusing them while apologising for "accidentally" (Ross' own air quotes) proposing to Rachel, Joey simply holds his fingers nearer to his face.** And immediately after that, Joey tries to get Ross to punch him to square things for the whole proposal mix-up with Rachel. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUlLX46gss8 It doesn't end well for Ross]].--->'''Ross:''' '''''WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU?!!'''''** And the whole time, Gunther is watching what Ross is being put through and smiling.

[[folder: 905: TOW Phoebe's Birthday Dinner ]]

* This gem when Rachel is panicking about accidentally leaving Emma locked in Ross' apartment.-->'''Rachel''': What if she jumped out the bassinet?\\'''Ross''': Can't hold her own head up, but yeah, jumped.\\'''Rachel''': Oh my God, I left the water running!\\'''Ross''': Rach, you did not leave the water running. Please, just pull yourself together, okay?\\'''Rachel''': Ah, did I leave the stove on?\\'''Ross''': You haven't cooked since 1996!\\'''Rachel''': Is the window open? Because if there's a window open, a bird could ''fly in there!''\\'''Ross''': [[SarcasmMode Oh my God, you know what, yeah, I think you're right. I think...listen. A pigeon. No, no wait, no, no, an]] '''[[SarcasmMode EAGLE]]''' [[SarcasmMode flew in. Landed on the stove, and]] ''[[SarcasmMode caught fire!]]'' [[SarcasmMode The baby, seeing this, jumps across the apartment to the mighty bird's aid. The eagle, however, misconstrues this as an act of aggression, and grabs the baby in its talons. Meanwhile the faucet fills the apartment with water. Baby and bird, still ablaze, are locked in a DEATH GRIP,]] ''[[SarcasmMode swirling around the whirlpool that fills the apartment!!]]''** And Rachel's reaction to this speech is the cherry on a cake.---> '''Rachel''': ''({{Beat}})'' Boy, you're gonna be sorry if that's true.** And Rachel's fear of a bird flying into the apartment could be a CallBack to "TOW Phoebe's Husband" way back in Season 2 - where a pigeon really ''did'' fly into the apartment.* Rachel can't leave Emma at home so she has Ross's mother bring her to the restaurant with them. She stops in the middle of a toast to signal that Emma dropped her sock, leading to...--> '''Phoebe:''' Oh, for God's sake, Judy, pick up the sock! ''Pick up the sock!''

[[folder: 917: TOW the Memorial Service ]]

* The episode's A plot revolves around a back and forth between Ross and Chandler editing each other's profiles on the NYU alumni website getting out of hand. It starts with Chandler changing Ross' profile to claim he has sex with dinosaurs (Ross almost seems more offended by the anatomical impossibility of this than by the implication that he is a sexual deviant) and gets funnier from there.** Chandler tries to take revenge on Ross for editing his profile to claim he was "gay as the day is long".--->'''Monica''': What are you going to do?\\'''Chandler''': OH YOU'LL SEE MY FRIEND!** He writes that Ross died [[NoodleIncident watching blimps]].--->'''Ross:''' I'm DEAD?!\\'''Chandler:''' ''(faking sympathy)'' And so young!\\'''Ross:''' Posting that I died, that ''really'' isn't funny!\\'''Chandler:''' Well, ''how'' you died was funny.\\'''Ross:''' Oh, please. "''[[CruelAndUnusualDeath Hit by a blimp?]]"''\\'''Chandler:''' It kills over ''one'' Americans every year!** Ross finds that no one cared enough to post anything his supposed death. When Chandler notes that a website isn't the proper venue to express grief, Ross sets up a sudden memorial at Chandler and Monica's apartment to milk some sympathy. Attendance is so bad that the first guy to show up is actually there for the supposedly gay Chandler and thinks Monica is actually a man.--->'''Ross:''' I'm dead and no one cares?\\'''Monica:''' I look like a man?\\'''Chandler:''' Please, one ridiculous problem at a time!\\'''Ross:''' This isn't ridiculous. Look around. No one's here.\\'''Chander:''' You gave them one day's notice. Not everyone in our class checks the website every day. And, Monica, it's probably the way you stand!\\''[Monica adjusts her posture]''** The one person who does show up for Ross is Kori Weston, an attractive woman that Chandler remembers.--->'''Chandler:''' Chandler, Chandler Bing. And I'm not gay. I'm not gay at all.\\'''Monica:''' You are married, though.\\'''Chandler:''' ''[to Kori]'' Don't listen to him. He's in a really bad mood.

The opening bit with Ross on a sugar high from eating too much maple candy is also a real gem.-->'''Chandler:''' Look, they are totally ripping us off!\\'''Ross:''' Dude, don't worry about it, I know how we can make your money back. This is a nice hotel y'know, plenty of amenities, we just load up on those. Like those apples, instead of taking one, um, I take six!\\'''Chandler:''' Great. At $100 an apple we're there!\\'''Ross:''' C'mon, y-you get the idea, you know? W-we'll make our money back in no time.\\'''Chandler:''' Dude, you're shaking!\\'''Ross:''' I-I think it's the sugar, can you hold the apple?

I think this is the first time in our marriage that I've felt like the more attractive one.\\'''Phoebe:''' All right, c'mon, Mike, you can beat her! Knock that dog off her head!\\'''Monica:''' ''[misses Mike's shot, handing him another point]'' Ugh!

[[folder: 1003: TOW Ross' Tan ]]

* The A plot in this episode is a ''tour de force'' for David Schwimmer's skill at physical comedy as Ross makes repeated trips to spray tan salons and, through a series of misunderstandings, only gets sprayed on the front of his body every time.

I used the the-saurus!\\'''Chandler''': ''On every word?!''\\'''Joey''': Yep!\\'''Monica''': Alright, what was this sentence originally?\\'''Joey''': Oh, "They are warm, nice people with big hearts."\\'''Chandler''': And that became "[[PurpleProse They are humid prepossessing homosapiens with full-sized aortic pumps?]]"\\'''Joey''': Yeah, yeah.
